For our family, we are going to try to pay off the rest of our consumer debt, sell our house, and find reasonable health insurance coverage for our impending move overseas. I am most worried about selling the house, but hopefully it will all work out.<br/>Jerry<br/>www.leads4insurance.com These are great goals which will lead to a successful 2008, I am sure of it!

Try "In a World Lit Only by Fire" or one of Peter Lynch's books on personal finance. That should kick-start your goal to read non-fiction, even if it's a year later. Happy reading! Nicole!

If you can earn more (don't forget the fact that you can deduct interest from your taxes) elsewhere, then you shouldn't pay off those loans any sooner than you have to, no matter how good it might feel. That money is better used elsewhere! Don’t you have a good rate on your student loans?

i think the most important thing in your post was this…
“Decrease my loans to $2,500. Actually I’d like to pay them off completely this year, but I want my goal to be realistic and attainable, so I’m sticking with this number.”

the simple fact that you are looking at it from an i would like to but im going to be realistic perspective is very impressive.

I dont exactly know what the boots over jeans thing is all about but congratulations on not caring what your ass looks like in skinny jeans anymore.
